Great to join the Qualifications Scotland Results Day briefing at Glasgow Kelvin College this morning and to hear about the rise in demand for vocational and technical qualifications. @sqanews @GKCollege #ResultsDay #NextSteps

It was great to join @PersimmonHomes at @GKCollege for the donation of new tools for students - and even have a go at some bricklaying myself!

The tools were donated in memory of Ronnie Muir, who dedicated over 30 years to construction training and was passionate about supporting young people into the industry.

It was a very fitting way to honour Ronnie's legacy and help the next generation develop the skills our construction sector needs.

We welcomed Anas Sarwar, Leader of the Scottish Labour Party, to Glasgow Kelvin College today as part of his election campaign visit.
